I like them but I'm easily entertained.

I don't really like them, but then again, I don't hate them. Maybe if they weren't so tall. I could go without one though...just more clutter if you already have an avatar. They do look good without an avatar. 0.02

I was thinking the same thing about the size.... I think I'll try to come up with something that is shorter and wider.

I don't really love em. Just my .02....

If we did keep em, make em MUCH smaller and perhaps stick them in a different place...

Yeah... smaller. They make short posts take up too much space.

Another thing is that they just don't seem to make sense....
Ranks are good enough IMO....I don't think we need a picture for it...

Maybe fish...

Start as the lowly trout and work your way up to a smallmouth bass. :-"

That's a good idea, but how would you go about getting a ranking system that everyone agrees on???

And you would have to change the ranking...

Like this:
Post 0-30: Stickleback
Post 30-100: Bluegill
Post 100-200: Bass
Post 200-300: Trout
Post 300-500: Musky
Post 500-1000: Sea run cutthroat
Post 1000-1500: Coho Salmon

and so on...It could be fun....But then again, how do you rank one species above the other?

Well you are the leader, but I guess it helps to keep your constituents happy?
